I'd say reacting to the competition , they didn't buy Roku out they made an investment in it. Now TV is a great idea however sadly at the moment its too expensive and the technology behind it pales into insignificance when compared to Netflix that said its an evolving product and I'm sure the tech and pricing will improve.
I still think there's an element of risk for a pay TV provider adding Netflix to its platform sure the sports fans will stay loyal to traditional pay TV however there's many others who could trial the likes of Lovefilm/Netflix on the pay TV STB and decide it offers them enough when combined with freeview.
